Another normal day at work, going through the same lifestyle again. Waking up at 5.30am, catching the 6am bus. Sleep on the bus till 6.55am before reaching my stop. Take the shuttle bus into my base at 7am and reach the base ard 7.20am. Walk through the security check, take another shuttle bus from the guard house into the medical centre. Approximately reaching my office at 7.30am. Change into No.3 uniform, change into my contact lenses and munch my fruit while doing something all the way until 8.15am when my supervisor will step in and assign tasks for me to do. And the list goes on...
I really pity people who sign on with the SAF. This is the kind of routine and regimental lifestyle that they have to go through everyday assuming that they are admin bounded. It's such a pity to waste your life doing unexciting stuffs, talking to the same old people, trying to make your life happier by forcing urself to smile at every single thing that is happening around you. Life should be action-packed, one that is filled with exploration of the things unknown, with adventures fraught with small dangers lurking at every crevices and unexpected surprises planted at every juncture of the journey. As good as it may sound, it can only be found in films such as Indiana Jones, James Bond etc.. Sometimes I wish that what happens in movies will take place in reality. The media portrays serving in the military as something honorable and mind-blowing. But the truth is that it actually blows your mind off. Literally in this case. The reasons are almost self-explanatory. Oh well, looking at the brighter side, 7 months has passed. Small figures do really make a large difference.
Looking forward seems to be the last remaining option left for me.
